Silver chrome printable vinyl gives printed graphics a brilliant, mirror-like metallic background that immediately attracts attention. Graphictac 1000-4201X is a professional PVC/PET composite film designed for premium labels, decals, lettering, retail displays and decorative graphics applied to smooth, flat surfaces.
The film is printable with solvent, eco-solvent, UV-curable and latex ink systems. Printed colors interact with the reflective silver base, producing metallic-looking colors and highlights that cannot be achieved on ordinary white vinyl. Final appearance can vary depending on the printer, ink configuration, color profile and artwork, so production testing is recommended.

Recommended Applications
Graphictac silver chrome printable vinyl is intended for graphics requiring a polished metallic appearance. Recommended applications include:

- Point-of-purchase and retail displays

Application notice: This film is intended primarily for clean, smooth and flat surfaces. It is not recommended for compound curves, long-term vehicle wraps or permanent outdoor installations. Outdoor performance depends on exposure, climate, printing, finishing and installation conditions.
Printing and Installation Recommendations
Because the silver surface reflects through printed ink, colors may appear different than they do on white vinyl. Test the artwork, ink coverage, printer profile and finishing process before beginning a full production run. Printers equipped with white ink can use white layers to control where the metallic effect remains visible.
Apply the film to a properly cleaned, smooth and dry surface. The air-egress liner assists with installation, but correct surface preparation and application technique are still required. For additional abrasion, moisture or UV protection, test a compatible overlaminate with the complete printed graphic before production.
